Anytime I write a self-promotional (i.e. Eze Castle Integration-focused) article on Hedge IT I feel the need to add the caveat that we try really hard to make all our articles educational. However, sometimes pride gets in the way and we have to share with you our proudest accomplishments.

To that end, today’s post is going to be focused on blowing our own horn about the award-winning streak the company has been on. These awards are a direct reflection of our amazing employees.

Proud moment #1: Winning the Help Desk Institute Team Excellence Award for External Support. This award recognized our world-class help desk organization for their outstanding client support. In winning this award, we joined a very elite group that includes Dell Perot Systems, EDS and Novell as previous winners. Anyone who has dialed into our help desk knows our team is truly deserving of this award.

Proud moment #2: Winning Most Cutting Edge Cloud Solution from FTF News. Have we mentioned we love the cloud? Well we do. As with any service we provide our hedge fund clients, we are always focused on delivering the best possible solution and the Eze Private Cloud is a reflection of this commitment. We appreciate that the good folks at FTF News recognized our efforts here and honored our hedge fund cloud with this award.

Proud moment #3: Winning Best Managed Technology Solution in the 2012 Hedgeweek Awards. Hedgeweek’s 41,000 readers voted and Eze Castle Integration emerged at the top of the Best Managed Account Technology award again this year. We are honored to be recognized by this great publication and its very smart readers.

Proud moment #4: Climbing the CRN500 List (yet again). We first appeared on this list in 2006 and haven’t slowed down in our climb towards the top. This year we ranked #220 on this ranking of the top technology integrators in North America. Moving up 36 spots from last year, this achievement highlights our strong growth and continued international expansion.

Proud moment #5: Being named a Top 20 Managed Service Provider in the World by MSPmentor. This is a throwback to February 2012, but still worthy of making our top five list. The MSP mentor 100 report recognizes top managed service providers based on a range of metrics, including annual managed services revenue growth, managed services offered and worldwide client base. Globally, we ranked #20 and in North America we ranked #16 – impressive, right?

I could keep going but in the interest of being modest, I’ll stop here. We look forward to sharing more accomplishments with you but promise to wait at least a few months before doing so blatantly on Hedge IT.
